GW and GW4 not thinking they deserve the DP amazes me! They watched, were there and knew of the plans! They look like they are mad at the world in the court room like they are mad at the world when they need to take responsibility for their own actions! I bet their attorneys have their hands full with those two!
Remember FR was also beaten and I believe CRSR was too. I believe they both did more than watch or plan...IMO they both participated in the injuries inflicted.

I don't recall anything ever being stated anywhere that FR was beaten. Do you have a link?

The only mention of someone being beaten that I can recall is BJM stating to the 911 operator that CRSR had been beaten. Link (from page 1 of media and timeline thread):

"Caller: My brother-in-law’s in the bedroom and it looks like someone has beat the hell out of him."

Transcripts: 911 calls from Pike County slayings

Frankie being beaten comes from the statement of BJM saying Frankie had a black eye. I believe it is from a gunshot wound not from Jake beating him. They were asleep in bed, Chris was not. My opinion Jake shot Frankie.

Frankie was shot 3x's in the head which means he could have been shot in his face. HG lying next to him was shot in her face.

"That’s when she discovered her nephew and his fiancee dead in bed. She said Frankie Rhoden, who was lying on his back, had a black left eye, but she couldn’t tell where they had been shot: There was just all that blood in the middle of the bed."

The autopsy reports mentioned bruising in I believe CRSR and FR. It's mentioned in general here and other articles.

Pike County autopsy report: Victims were bruised, shot a total of 32 times

I wonder if some of the victims were shot via a window, re reading the above article says some windows were wide open, so the killer of FR and HG may never have entered their home, I believe JW was their killer and he had one of the silenced guns, so he could have crept up to their home and opened and shot via window, I think this could also have happened for one or more of the victims at Dana's home and again I believe JW killed the 3 victims their,

They were shot at close range with gun touching or almost touching their heads which rules out distance shooting from a window. There of course was distance shooting through a door at Chris's.

All of the Pike County massacre victims were shot in the head at point-blank range.

All eight victims were shot with the gun barrel touching their skin or very, very close to it – just centimeters or inches away, the coroner determined.

• Clarence “Frankie” Rhoden (age 20): Three (head). Two were “contact wounds” as indicated by soot from the gun on his skull.
  • Gary Rhoden (age 37): Three “contact” wounds. shot twice in the head and once in the face with the gun pressed against the side of his head, leaving a "muzzle stain."

Everytime I even go near the autopsy reports it makes my blood boil, the savagery. I believe GW3 definitely had a hand in CRSR's murder. I think his sick pride demanded that CRSR knew it was him getting revenge. I also think GW4 was with his father that night and was the one who probably killed GR. AJMO

The windows being left open could have also been to try and confuse the TOD for the coroner.

Rhoden family massacre: Autopsy reports indicate one victim was awake when fatally shot

Gary Rhoden was shot twice in the head and once in the face with the gun pressed against the side of his head, leaving a "muzzle stain."
I remember way back when reading and re-reading the autopsy reports and looking up the mentioned medical terms, HHG's led me to think her adrenaline was was up like she'd been aware and not fast asleep. Also the foam cap around HR lips/mouth led me to wonder if she was smothered unconscious first and then shot.

Every single one of the W's deserve the DP IMO. It grates that AW had those dropped and GW4 acts like he killed nobody. I just don't believe it. AJMO

Foam cap can happen for many different reasons I remember it being discussed. Adrenaline can go up also for different reasons, can be a body's reaction process from being shot etc....

It is always possible they heard something but they appeared to have been in bed asleep according to Canepa and Scheiderer at the Bond Hearing.

They were killed by gunshot no indication of anything else as cause of death. If something else was a contributing factor to their cause of death it would be mentioned in the autopsy.

As for George, Angela said the 3 guys left Peterson Rd that night with 3 guns and at least 2 silencers to go commit the murders and was told about it when they came back later. This collaborates Jake's version and shows George was at the crime scenes. Jake also said his family did participate in the crimes.

Also showing George was at the crime scenes might come from bloody shoe print evidence found at 2 crime scenes.

Also helping to show George participated that night might be his fingerprints and DNA on the guns and knife found buried or under water at FWF.

Point is, even if Jake testifies that George did not shoot or kill any of the 8, and even if Angela says she was told by everyone George didn't shoot, George was still there participating in 8 aggravated murders, carrying a dangerous ordnance, committing burglary, unlawful use of property, tampering with crime scenes, obstruction of justice - hiding evidence, being a lookout, being a driver, intimidating victims etc....

He participated too heavily to get murder charges dropped.

Billy did not get the DP dropped yet and I predict that Judge Deering will rule the same for George as with Billy and not drop the DP yet and not drop the 8 aggravated murder charges.

A jury will have to decide if he's guilty of 8 murders and I do not believe they will let him get away with his blatant participation in the 8 murders. I believe the jury will find him guilty beyond reasonable doubt. I believe he will get LWOP.

From Canepa in court for Jake and Angela's guilty pleas and my opinion.

Maybe Jake has a clarification of his statements about who did what to whom?

I agree, GW3 had a personal revenge in mind. He told CRSR he would be back. Remember the previous week there was a fight between the two and Chris whooped the *ss of GW3.

100% yes. How AW got away with the murders makes my blood boil. She IMO was the main organiser and Chief Buyer for these heinous killings. She shopped for for more than those shoes I'd like to bet. All the plotting and planning has her name all over this case.

It breaks my heart just thinking about why she, AW wanted those children to be hers. JMO but she had to carry forward the ways of this little Cult family.

Since the defense is calling him, I would say they think it will help clarify what they have said in their motion. I still do not see that causing Deering to drop 1-8 or DP. There would need to be several other legal things met and JW would have to testify in G4 favor to those things for that to happen in my opinion. I do not see those things being the case.

It's just so sad to think about crsr last hours of life. Imo Billy's main goal was letting Chris kno his whole family was to suffer the same fate. Crsr courage in protecting his daughter from these monsters must have ignited level of evil in bw3. He's Billy bad 🤬🤬🤬 people don't defy him! It seems like crsr really had a chance to win even with all the advantages the Wagner coward family had.. to me this is the crux of why g4 should die. They acted as a unit who's sole purpose was making sure everyone died. Just because g4 didnt deliver a kill shot is completely irrelevant. The premise of a Rico or conspiracy case is group of criminals working towards one illegal goal together In order to accomplish a crime that the individual members could not complete alone. It's been saidbover and over how well planned and tactical these assassinations were. 2 people could not have completed all the tasks- cameras, cell phone jammers, dogs, cell phones, crime scene tampering, fighting crsr, methodically shooting Chris 9 times and kenny with one shot In the eye. I belive g4 was so confident he wouldn't be arrested and had no dna because he did not physically enter the trailers. He may have stayed outside with his coon hunting night scope to provide cover fire and ensure no survivors. Remember 3 different guns were used. Angela claims she wasn't there so rationally speaking It's more likely each w shot one. I think jw said in his proffer that g4 chickened out and jake took his gun and used it. I think jw lawyers told him he had no chance to win and getting a favorable version of events in a proffer could help his brother get off. G4 seems like the person jake cares most for, certainly not his daughter

Oh yes, well said. Especially the bit about them being a GROUP of criminalsworking towards one illegal goal. The intention was there, planned by the entire clan for the entire family to be wiped away from this earth. All four Ws should share the same fate, DP.
